7. Korean Style Popcorn Chicken
“This recipe is outstanding! We loved it and I plan to make it often. Our favorite aspect of the dish was that the fried chicken remained crunchy even when covered with the sauce (I double-fried the chicken). I used all breast meat, and it was still very juicy. I tend to be wary of deep-frying, but I liked working with the bite-sized pieces of meat because they cooked so quickly. I served it with rice and your Sautéed Cucumber Side Dish.” ~ Elizabeth
“I have made this twice in 2 weeks!! Could not find rice cakes, ordered on line!! This recipe is absolutely delicious!! Now I can watch my Kdramas and have a great Korean meal also!!
Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe!!” ~ Karen

Now, it’s bonus time!
While the above recipes are your favourite recipes created during 2016, I do have my readers all time favourites that were created a few years back!
Here are 5 of your all time favourite recipes.
1. Bibimbap
“I came across your website looking for a simple bibimbap recipe and it got me hooked!!! So delicious!!! I have made it several times, my husband loves it (especially the great sauce) and the kids like it (without the sauce though, which they reckon is too hot). It tastes much better when I make it than when we have it in a restaurant (ok, Munich, Germany, may not be THE best place for Korean restaurants).” ~ Nina
